Modulus of Elasticity and Flexural Strength of Concrete with Industrial By-Products
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
The study is to make use of industrial waste and to reduce the cement usage in the concrete by using the industrial wastes Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS), Metakaolin and copper slag. GGBS and Metakaolin is replaced with cement from 5% to 10% and copper slag is replaced with fine aggregate from 10% to 60% and no change in coarse aggregate. The concrete mix is made by using these mixes. There are 84 specimens is to be casted, the specimens include cubes of size 150mm length 150mm breadth and 150mm height, cylinders of 150mm diameter 300mm height and beams of size 500mm length, 100mm breadth, 100mm height. The cubes and cylinders are tested under compression testing machine to find the compressive strength and split tensile strength, and the beams are tested using two point loading to find the flexural strength. The specimens are tested in 14 and 90 days and also the modulus of elasticity at 28 days is determined using the cylinder specimen and the values are compared with the control mix of M30 grade concrete.
